Anybody going to GenCon? I'm not bringing my cube, but I left a lot of open time in my schedule, so I would love to join a game if anybody is bringing one.
This is a much better implementation of the Egyptian theme than the invocations were. I dig them, although I won't be able to shell out the dough for one.
Here we are about halfway through July, so if you haven't yet, you should hopefully be looking to send in the next week or so. (Mine is going out this week.)
If you need any help or if you need your partner to know that you'll be out of town in a given week, let me know.
I haven't seen Warden in action outside of normal booster draft. I did get one in this year's secret Santa, we just haven't had a chance to play much since then.
I have a small rainbow section that's a catch-all for a few cards like this, Wild Nacatl and Tasigur. I think there are four cards in it right now, but it's somewhat balanced between colors.
Great point Spike Rogue, thanks for mentioning it. That doesn't come with tracking, but I've shipped a number of cards that way overseas and never had an issue.
Firebolt is the kind of flexible card I love. It's useful starting on turn 1, has some additional value at 5 mana (or if you needed to pitch it early) and can double up its effect to stay relevant against larger creatures if that's what you need.
I like the embalm mechanic. I don't love the naming though.
Embalming is what you would do when you put the creature in the graveyard, not when it comes out. I guess they already used Unearth though, and embalm does feel very Egyptian.
I haven't resolved Cruise yet. Other people have and have told me it's good enough to keep for now, but not amazing.
I've been on one cruise - a Royal Caribbean cruise to Alaska. It was awesome, but my parents were paying for the whole thing, and a big part of the fun was the excursions. I'm pretty sure they're pricey, so I don't know that it's something my wife and I would be able to swing any time soon.
If you need any help or if you need your partner to know that you'll be out of town in a given week, let me know.
Have fun!
I apologize for the delay, but pairings have been sent out. If you believe you're participating and didn't get a PM, let me know.
Send me a PM with your postal information and your wishlist and you're in.
One more day to sign up folks!
A little over two weeks left until signups close.
